Former Redemptorist and Dunham Coach Guy Mistretta has inherited the program in place of David Brewerton, the reigning NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune Baton Rouge area Small Schools Coach of the Year who led the Wildcats to the Class 3A state title game a year ago.

Mistretta went 15-17 in three seasons at the helm of Dunham, and 70-18 in seven seasons with Redemptorist, including a Class 3A championship back in 2005. When he took over the Wolves, they were a season removed from a runner-up finish in the title game, and Mistretta considers himself in the same position with Livonia.
